Why is everyone saying "dead hamster" instead of murdered hamster, or at least criminal negligence'd hamster?

What's the consensus? Newswire today or Thursday?

From looking at Rockstar's twitter, we usually get a trailer for the summer update on the Thursday before (LSSS was a Friday though iirc), I don't remember if we get a Newswire at the same time though? 

I'm betting Thursday, I'm not holding out hope for anything from Rockstar or from the leakers here today, although I'll happily be proven wrong.

Thursday a newswire maybe with infos about the DLC next week, or it's only a tunable newswire and we get the infos about the DLC on Friday. Well or no news about the DLC at all, and they just release it next week.

 

Hamsters only live 2-3 years, no idea how ppl can be emotionally attached to something that lives so short. All the hamster talk is a bit annoying, but RIP Jeremy.

 

If it would been a dog (10-13 years) or a cat (12-18 years), or a goldfish (20-30) yeah that would be more tragic. But damn it's just a hamster.

Someone somewhere... today... right now... somebody that wasn't around here lately, but somebody that put a lot of effort in reorganizing and to working extra hours & double shifts to free-up two holiday weeks, who was past week out of town & country with significant other in boring seaside resort on scorching beaches flapping around in shallow unpleasantly warm waters and eating overpriced 'but free' swedish buffet food, secretly scratching cracks for constantly present sand induced itch... somebody who flew back home yesterday on bit overcrowded but quite smelly & family screaming charter plane, who then spend rest of the day visiting his family & friends showing same set of generic selfies & blue sky over blue sea pictures telling same (semi-truthful) story how great & relaxing was everything... but today, this morning, right now, that one is home alone with another whole free week, THE REAL SUMMER HOLIDAY WEEK... that somebody was off-grid past week just to go totally blind in to this week (and to skip on all annoying "from work" phone calls)... that somebody is just booting system, only thought flashing in head in repeat bright as some cyberpunk neon - "YEAH BABY, IT'S 19th FINALLY AND I'M FREE WHOLE WEEK! NEW SUMMER DLC HERE I COMEEEE!!!!..."

Not really surprised that this is your response. Most of your posts are tonally negative or contrarian just for the sake of it. Diminishing the value of life, hamster or otherwise, as being “less worthy” because of something as arbitrary as life expectancy is pretty inhumane. If you don’t care about the hamster, cool, but I think it was uncalled for to give empty underhanded condolences while also saying it’s “just a hamster”.

 

Do better.

Let’s hope you never have a newborn then - wouldn’t love it until it aged up a bit

please will all the GTAforumers join me in a minute silence for my pet Jeremy the Russian Dwarf hamster, who died of heatstroke today because i forgot to turn my fan on. Thank you.

 

[Thomas The Dank Engine]

A poem, if you will

Jeremy

Such a small animal, yet so brave
is now surfing on the endless wave

 

His yourney was short yet fully lived
the amount of love he got was a huge gift

 

His presence might be gone
but his spirit in the Spectopic lives on

 

[Volganor]

Rest In Peace, Jeremy the Hamster. Your memory has made this thread quite the fun read and a nice departure from the common "discussing in circles" that we've been having since the last community update.

I really wish we could just take off the pitiful pea shooters from the front of the Ardent so we could use it in races and things like that. God knows why Rockstar decided to put it on Warstock - it's barely a weaponised vehicle...

Weaponized vehicles are pretty messed up ATM. We have dune buggies that can take a couple RPGs, but that Russian Missile Launcher truck can only take a direct hit. Also some weaponized sportscar like the Weap. Ignus with a useless machine gun, you'd be dead before you can get a proper angle.

Y'know, it would be pretty cool if we got an updated Banshee in the form of the latest-gen Viper. They've updated the Gauntlet and Buffalo, might as well add this or the Bison to the roster

This! We only ever get slight variations of the regular Banshee that's been in the game since 2013 - the 900R and more recently the HSW edition. We've had loads of Coquettes (please add the GTA IV one though please Rockstar ) but we're still getting the same old Banshee based on the Viper from like 2008...

 

A new Banshee and a new Bison would be brilliant

 

 

[bulldog385]

1980s Bison Retro would be dope as well

We’re expecting something Thursday. Could happen today but we’re not confident 

[Calakarad]

Expect nothing and be surprised

[Spider-Vice]

Ok everyone, may Jeremy rest in peace and may this be a highlight of the DLC topic but can we please not turn this into a hamster death meme topic which spans like 2 pages now?  Thanks.

As for news, if it's anything like past years, Thursday most likely.

[Thomas The Dank Engine]

I dont think we're getting anything today. My bets are on Thursday. Either leaked news or Official R* news via the newswire.
